Equality Act Code of Practice published
The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has published three Codes of Practice on the Equality Act 2010 which came into force in October 2010. The Codes of Practice cover three areas:
- Equal Pay
- Employment
- Services, Public Functions and Associations.
The Codes of Practice provide guidance to organisations about the provisions in the Equality Act 2010. An Employment Tribunal should take the Codes of Practice into account in cases involving areas they cover.
The Codes of Practice can be found on the EHRC website https://www.equalityhumanrights.com/
